Hunter Goodman hit a one-out, solo home run in the eighth inning, and the visiting Colorado Rockies beat the Miami Marlins 3-2 on Tuesday night to clinch their first series victory of this season.

The Rockies had lost all 19 series this season — 10 on the road — and a big-league record 22 in a row dating back to 2024. Colorado has won two straight games for just the second time in 2025 and can earn its first series sweep Thursday afternoon.

Tyler Freeman had three hits for the Rockies, Goodman and Jordan Beck finished with two hits apiece and Victor Vodnik (1-1) got the victory with 1 1/3 innings of relief. Jesus Sanchez and Kyle Stowers had two hits apiece for Miami, which has dropped three in a row.

The game was tied after seven innings and Marlins reliever Anthony Bender (1-4) struck out Thairo Estrada leading off the eighth. Goodman then homered to left to give Colorado the lead. Seth Halvorsen got the final three outs for his third save.

Rays 5, Rangers 1

Astros 3, Pirates 0

The Pirates wasted a quality outing in which Skenes (4-6) allowed one run on three hits over eight innings. Skenes struck out eight but yielded a go-ahead solo home run in the seventh to Walker.

Yankees 3, Guardians 2

Jazz Chisholm Jr. snapped a tie by homering on the first pitch of the seventh inning to help Carlos Rodon get his seventh straight victory as New York hung on to beat visiting Cleveland.

Christian Yelich extended his hitting streak to 10 games for the Brewers, who saw their eight-game winning streak come to an end. Sal Frelick belted his fourth homer of the season.

Diamondbacks 8, Braves 3

Ketel Marte and Corbin Carroll both hit a pair of home runs and starting pitcher Zac Gallen pitched seven strong innings to help visiting Arizona beat Atlanta.

Arizona evened the season series at 2-2 and has won two straight. Marte went 3-for-3 with two walks, three RBIs and lifted his batting average to .294. Marte has reached base safely in a season-best 16 games, a streak that includes seven homers and 11 RBIs. Carroll went 3-for-4 with four RBIs and three runs scored.
